Everything an advocate needs.

Built around how lawyers actually research — not how databases organise data.

Citator with overruled flags

Every judgment carries a treatment breakdown: Followed, Distinguished, Overruled. A red banner appears the moment a precedent has been displaced. Stop citing dead cases.

Argument Lab

Describe your case. The Lab finds similar precedents from the corpus, builds your strongest arguments, and anticipates the other side. A drafting partner — not a substitute for thinking.

Smart View

Every judgment structured into Facts, Issues, Arguments, Reasoning, Ratio Decidendi, and Decision. Skim a case in 90 seconds.

Search that understands case law

Filter by subject, disposition, court, year, judge. Highlights the relevant paragraph inside the judgment.

Workspaces

One workspace per matter: pin judgments, attach notes, organise issues → arguments → authorities.

Central & Local Acts

Section-level navigation across central legislation and Bihar / Jharkhand state acts. Cited cases listed under each section.

Judicial Lab

Verified judges get a private workspace for drafting orders with citation-backed reasoning. Complimentary.

Workflow

From client brief to courtroom — in three steps.

Search

Keywords, citations, party names. Full text across the corpus — synonym-aware, so 'FIR' also finds 'First Information Report'.

Prepare

Generate arguments. Save authorities to your workspace. Walk into court ready.
